I have recently incurred an Air Bag warning notice on my dash when first
starting up my car. The failure sets Diagnostic Codes B1147 & B1148 and
the
failure warning can be extinguished by switching the ignition off and then
back on. This failure occurs intermittently on startup only after the car
has been sitting for a while. If it does not occur on initial startup, it
will not occur while the car is running.
The probability of the side impact sensing modules failing in both doors
simultaneously appears to me to be remote. I suspect the failure is
either
caused by a common ground problem or an intermittent failure of the
sensing
and diagnostic module under the driver's seat.
Has anyone experienced this type of problem? If so, I'd appreciate
hearing
what you found was the problem and how it was resolved.
